The founders of this project are two amateur astronomers from Belarus, Andrei Ioda (http://astro.ioda.by) and Alexander Linnik (http://astro.of.by). We began our journey in astronomy at different times and each in its own way.

Once, fate brought us together and we, passionate about astronomy and electronics, set ourselves the task of creating an automated observatory. Why precisely automated? The fact is that in Belarus there are not so many clear nights suitable for shooting night sky objects, and I really did not want to lose them due to tiredness or the inability to spend the whole night at the observatory. So this task appeared - automation. The path was long and difficult, but most importantly - successful.

Today, each of us has its own remote automated observatory. During this time, we gained quite a lot of experience and developed our automation solutions.

So we want to share them with you. You may be interested in applying our solutions to your observatory. Join now.
